Hi Ellen, 


Classic Parking still intends to receive payment for all months parked. May we 
meet about this on Monday, or when is the best day/time?

RE: Monthly Parking Rates 


Thanks for sharing, Lito. 


The BID is not responsible for invoices that were never delivered, and we cannot 
back-pay $23k. We are a non-profit organization that operates on annual budgets and we 
just went through our renewal with the City which means we started this year with new 
operations, bank accounts, etc. 


That said, we can pay 6 months of parking for 5 vehicles, and will honor complete 
invoices from this moment forward. 


Please provide adjusted invoices at your earliest convenience. 


Best, 


Ellen

Got it. 


You mentioned that Lito has prepared 2 invoices, one for previous months parked 
and one for May and June 2018. Can you please send those over so we can take a look?

Hi Ellen, 


So the attached invoice is also for validations. 


The monthly parking had not been invoiced previously, so we bundled the previous 
months, and also May and June 2018.

Hi Tiffany, 


I had a chance to discuss this with my accountant and Board Treasurer. Looking 
back through our records, we received our first invoice from Classic on 7/31/16 (attached) 
which included charges from 4/18/16 through July 2016. From then on, we've received 
monthly invoices, but only for validated tickets. We've never received any invoices for 
the monthly spaces - can you please confirm where these invoices were being sent? Can you 
also please provide copies of all the invoices? 


Thanks, 


Ellen

Ok Ellen, understood. 


I hope the treasurer will be available early next week, as we are approaching 

June.

Hi Tiffany, 

My board treasurer is on vacation and I won't have a chance to talk with him about 
this until next week. I do apologize for the delay.

Hi Lulu, it was a pleasure meeting with you today and we 
appreciate you diving right in to assist in getting South Park's monthly parking up to 
date. 


Per our discussion, the original monthly fee agreed upon by South 
Park and Classic Parking was $200 per vehicle and $250 per overnight truck. 


Since our discussion, Classic has decided to lower the monthly 
parking fees by $50 per vehicle and $50 per overnight truck from January 2016 thru May 
2018. 


We have also decided to make every vehicle (including the 2 
overnight trucks) $200 per month beginning June 2018. 


Here is the breakdown for previous/current months: 


= $12,150 

$10,800 


Monthly Parking Owed From Previous Months 

Jan 2016 - Jan 2016 1 Vehicle(s) @ $150 = $150 

Feb 2016 - Apr 2018 3 Vehicle(s) @ $150 = $450 X 27 Months 


Feb 2016 - Apr 2018 


TOTAL 


2 Overnight @ $200 = $400 X 27 Months 


$ 23,100 


Monthly Parking May 2018 
4 Vehicle(s) @ $150 
2 Overnight @ $200 
TOTAL 


= $600 
= $400 


$ 1,000 


Monthly Parking June 2018

RE: Monthly Parking Rates 


4 Vehicle(s) @ $200 = $800 

2 Overnight @ $200 = $400 

TOTAL $ 1,200 

Invoices will be provided based on these amounts. 

We will need a cancelled check to get your account set up. 

We bill 1 month in advance, so all invoices will be marked "Due." 


As discussed earlier today, we are willing to take installments on 
the previous months owed if necessary, however, we are also under the assumption that 
South Park budgeted for their parking expense, in which we are hoping to collect the full 
amount as soon as possible. 


Lito Dimazana is our CFO whom I've copied in this email and our 
corporate office contact information is:
